    To preface my comments, I had/have two torn shoulders. I would suggest adding MSM, Vit. C, and Hyaluronic Acid. It's important to provide your body with the raw materials to help recreate everything. Additionally, I ran KLOW, Cartalax, with the supplements previously mentioned and it has made a huge difference. I even fell off a ladder and landed on my elbow and my ribs hurt, but my shoulder was fine. I'm doing the same thing again in a few weeks.

      @WisGal64 I'm glad this came up. I am feeling a little near pining site (near left shoulder). But nothing serious.
      Also, When pinning, I find the syringe is a little more resistant.
      As if Cartalax is a little less, I want to say, "lubricating" on the syringe compared to 157 or TB4.

      Yes I did notice that with the shoulder area, we thought it was due to scar tissue from previous surgeries or rat#1 just has tough skin lol

        @WisGal64 As in takes a little more effort to push the syringe plunger.

              @WisGal64 correct. The viscosity looks the same as my other peps. But maybe 3 out of 5 times it happens. But other times is as smooth as the others.

                @Juan-Doe that is great! I hope you get as good, if not better results than I did. I (my wife) injected the KLOW and Cartalax sub q on each side. I know for the bpc, it can make a difference where you inject, but i wanted to be as sure as possible. The idea was, BPC'157 for better blood flow into the cartridge. Tb-500 for creatinine better/more collagen and extra cellular matrix. GHK-Cu for gene expression and all the other cool stuff it does. KPV for reduced inflammation. MSM/HA/Vit C to provide the building blocks for the collagen/cartridge. And Cartalax for as the bioregulator to turn on chondrocyte production/gene expression.

                I will say, taking the MSM/HA/Vit C in the morning and the shots at jight seemed like a good idea to me. It takes time to breakout all down and have it be available. Additionally, Vit-C and GHK-Cu are supposed to be taken at different times when applying topicly, soni figured id play it safe with the pills/injections.

                    @brandenscheidecker I took 600mg of low molecular weight HA per day oral route (PO). I've continued to take that same amount. The best way to take it would be in the joint and high molecular weight, but that would be gnarly! So, low molecular weight PO.is the way to go as far as I've seen.

                      do you have any update on subject #2. I have subject with both the shoulder and the knee issues. he's been told he needs a knee replacement and shoulder replacement, but that he's still "too young". so he wants to try and improve quality of life now, rather than waiting until the doctor decides he's old enough.

                          @WisGal64 Hi, I have been using KLOW (.5, .5, .5 and 2.5 GHK), cartalax (3mg) daily for 2.5 months. Injected at the knees for OA. I rotate KLOW and Cartalax side to side.
                          Knee caps very sore and medial compartment has the most OA.
                          I combined this with shockwave therapy. 3 session, will go back for 1-2 sessions after a small break
                          I could not walk without serious pain. Forget going down the steps. Walking nearly pain free now. I have Synvisc One injections intra articular in the AM at my ortho. So far so good. Still probably gonna have to get a TKR but for now it's been a great relief. Get me through the summer and deal with it in the winter

                            @juan-doe That could also be that the plug in the cartridge is a little canted or ‘sticky’ in the cartridge. I have had a couple of times now where depressing the button on the pen had a huge amount of resistance and almost wouldn’t dispense. Two different pens, two different peptides.

                            Please set a funny and sarcastic signature line. It brings me joy. Thank you for your attention in this matter.

                                @ResearchCat This is happening with syringes. I have noticed that the way I hold and apply pressure helps. Its a work in progress.

                                  That is weird. Can you see any gelling or globs in the vial? The only time i have seen that issue with a syringe was with some ARA that had formed some little globs.

                                    @wisgal64 I was so glad to find this thread. Have left knee outer portion giving me fits and right shoulder as well; guess Cartalax is next. Tirz, NAD+, GHKcu (to be replaced by GLOW or KLOW), then Cartalax. Already take the supps you named. Where are you injecting on knee? I know you said biceps on and shoulder, correct? Is knee pin direct or above the area to move with blood flow?

                                      @Eleanor I tested 8mg klow for 10 weeks, off now for some weeks, and started cartalax and ARA recently. All that has really helped because the last few days I've noticed I'm sleeping in 3-4 hour blocks. Previously I constantly tossed and turned because my should, knees, and foot hurt. I've been thinking I must really be tired, but this morning I realized it was the peps doing their thing. Good luck.

                                          @Eleanor Not sight specific because I've had 6 surgeries in the last 5 years and they all hurt. So I rotate. At the amount of klow I was doing, the injection site might hurt for a day or 2, especially belly and inner thigh.
